American SpeedFest's super Sunday is here, with a full-day's
turbocharged motoring entertainment on and off the circuit at
Kent's Brands Hatch.

Racing at the iconic speed bowl will be headlined by the NASCAR
Whelen Euro Series (NWES), but that will be just one part of an
event which is so much more than a race meeting. Adult tickets for
this star-spangled spectacular are available on the gate for £30,
with a discounted rate for 13-15-year-olds, and FREE admission for
under-13s.

The headlining NWES is Europe's only officially endorsed NASCAR
stock car series, and two races will take the centre stage today,
with the first to be preceded by an opening ceremony, with all the
fun of the fair. This will set the scene for the afternoon's
on-track action with all the pomp and ceremony we've come to expect
from the Stars and Stripes, there may even be a surprise or two as
well!

Grid access during the opening ceremony is only for those with
wristbands, but there will be plenty of vantage points along the
main straight to watch from. There will be an earlier opportunity
to meet the drivers of SpeedFest VI during a pit walk at
9:20.

The NWES racing will form the centrepiece of an American themed
race line-up, with a 31-car grid of monstrous V8s clattering around
the venue's natural amphitheatre. Names to look out for will
include NASCAR legend Bobby Labonte who has switched to European
competition this year.

In addition to the racing, there will be loads to see and do,
with a HUGE off-track spread, with everything from monster truck
rides to appearances from Star Wars characters via a BBQ
competition. There will even be a hot dog competition and entries
are open to anybody who wishes to take part -just arrive at the
Live Action Arena ahead of 10:30 to register your interest.

The car displays will be must-see attractions too, with huge
quantities of American muscle expected to descend upon the venue to
create a Route 66 parking lot. Star cars will include the real
Herbie, as used during filming for The Love Bug, and a number of
replica movie cars.

Special cars will be showcased throughout the day at the Live
Action Arena, with three shows for classic and custom cars,
powerful muscle cars, and lowriders. Action here will be hosted by
American superbike racer James Rispoli - he's a real character and
will ensure these shows are larger than life!

As is traditional, SpeedFest will conclude with a massive car
parade on the circuit with plenty of honking of horns and flashing
headlights.

Full details of tomorrow's activities will be available within the
pages of the special souvenir programme which is available from the
venue megastore and other vendors for £5.
